G'day all. Not sure if this issue has been posted before, however the fuel tap on/off seems to be leaking through the sending wire.? 1. Has anyone had or know of this happening. 2. Is it a warrantable item (1month remaining) 1st registered Nov 07. It is amazing what is not covered in Huskies 2 year warrantee. Kind regards. Land of Oz
Yes I've heard of this happening a lot and experienced it first hand myself. I'd imagine that it would be covered under the warranty - all you can do is ask; the worst they can say is no! If it isn't covered some have successfully repaired it with JB weld. I tried this (and failed) and ended up using a KTM fuel tap. I've since ben told an Acerbis one fits too. I can dig out the part number if you decide to go down the KTM route..........
Yep, real common. Mine leaked just out of warranty, replaced it with a new stock one. That one leaked too before very long. Replaced IT with a KTM one. It's all good now.
From another forum I got this info: Its for a KTM 2002/2003 400/450 (part#=58307105200) Good luck..........
Finally got a response on the warrantee for the Fuel tap seems, they are going to cover it and that it is a common problem over here as well. ???? Why dont they rectify these common faults or do they want me to go back to an ORANGE THING. Thanks for the replies about the KTM item. I will get one of those as a spare for the trunk as they are reasonably priced over here. Fella's
